Some of the Swedish have become popular. Henning Mankel's 'Wallender' 
detective stories might have been the first. Stieg Larsson's Millenium 
series also became popular. The Swedes filmed all three books of the 
trilogy. The first, 'The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo' was redone in 
English but the other two never made it. A sequel that was written after 
Larsson died was filmed in English instead and just released.

Åsa Larsson (no relation) has some books translated into English but 
they generally make it into German first.  Thanks to Amazon they are 
available.

If nothing else people in the US are getting more exposure to Europe 
rather than just the UK. 'Deutschland 83' was a joint production and was 
shown on US TV in German with subtitles. I think it was more popular in 
the US than in Germany. Perhaps the DDR and Stasi skeletons aren't 
buried deep enough yet.
